​Smile and Cry

2 twins were born at roughly the same time.
One named Smile, the other named Cry.

Smile was happy, jolly all the time.
Cry was sad, felt the end was nigh.

Smile made friends, always happy and outgoing.
Cry stayed alone, never there, never showing.

Smile used his popularity to isolate cry.
“Ignore him.” He’d say, rolling his eyes with a sigh.

The people left Cry to suffer all alone.
Cry made sure to never leave home.

One day Cry snapped and attacked Smile publically.
Smile got hit, slightly hurt but not critically.

But Cry was angry, and kept up the fight.
Day after day, Cry would attack with great might.

Smile got hit, more than was manageable.
Cry stood victorious, proud and stable.

Smile felt defeated, broken by his brother.
They were born together, two perfect covers.

And they both disappeared with nothing to say.
They both forget only one person was born that day.
